Chapter 204: The City Wall

Chapter 204: The City Wall

Looking at the current scene, Zhao Di suddenly felt a sense of pride in his heart

As far as the eye can see, on the east side of the entire No. 1 Island, there is a huge city wall as high as 1,000 zhang and as thick as 2,300 zhang

At the foot of the city wall and on top of the city wall, tens of millions of mortals and monks of all kinds of cultivation stood densely, compared to this huge city wall, like dense ants on a high mountain.

Zhao Di had been in the Immortal Cultivation Realm for more than a hundred years, and he was used to seeing all kinds of magnificent wonders, and even the Penglai Immortal Island, which was suspended above the sea, did not make him so amazed.

Sure enough, it was the first miracle of the Outer Star Chen Zhao Di had seen the record of this place in the jade slip a long time ago, but he deliberately sold it out, only saying that any monk who saw this city wall for the first time would be amazed and couldn't believe that this was a magnificent building built by mortals. Now that I look at it, it is indeed so

Even Zhao Di, who had been cultivating immortals for many years, looked at the magnificent building in front of him, and couldn't help but feel heroic in his heart.

He couldn't help but slowly descend to the height, admiring this earth-shattering work of mortals from a closer distance

Somewhere in the middle of the city wall, there is a group of mortals reinforcing the city wall, a piece of huge stones with a length and width, and a thickness of two feet are hoisted by mortals with ropes, pulleys, giant poles and other tools, and are placed in a suitable position. And such a stone masonry team, Zhao Di just glanced at it roughly, and saw as many as thousands of teams, I am afraid that on the entire city wall, there are millions of mortals who are engaged in this work.

There are hundreds of foundation building period monks who step on flying magic weapons, holding a talisman pen in their hands, flying around on the city wall, and on each boulder are engraved some defensive spells such as "solidification technique" and "vajra technique", although the engraving of these low-level spells is not difficult, but the city wall is so large, and the number of spells that need to be engraved is so large, it is also extremely difficult to do

There are also hundreds of monks, who should have specialized in earth attribute exercises, and frequently came to the joints between the boulders to perform fossil techniques, and fused the joints of the two boulders into one to form a whole boulder, so that the defense and stability of the city wall were much higher Of course, the casting of this spell consumed spiritual power, and it was impossible to fill all the seams without tens of thousands of monks who knew earth attribute exercises. These monks also only fill in some seams at regular intervals.

These are all scenes that take place on the side of the city wall, and as for the top of the city wall, it is even more lively.

Zhao Di looked at it, and on the top of the city wall two or three hundred zhang wide, at least hundreds of thousands of people were busy, and there were all kinds of strange tools.

The complex wooden elevated frame about ten zhang high should be a catapult capable of throwing boulders, which Zhao Di guessed from the hundreds of stones stacked next to these catapults that were three or four feet in diameter. There are already thousands of catapults like this on the city wall, and there are still tens of thousands of mortals who are still building such catapults.

There are thousands of giant crossbows about three zhang long, and next to each giant crossbow, there are hundreds of arrows several zhang long, looking at their color, they should all be iron. Presumably, the weight of this arrow would have taken three or four mortals to lift

There are hundreds of mortal teams that build giant crossbows, and the number of people is no less than tens of thousands.

In addition to mortals, there were also quite a few neat ranks of monks, which attracted Zhao Di's attention.

Among them, what he noticed the most was the neat square team composed of thousands of high-level Qi refining stage cultivators, all of whom held medium-grade spiritual tools, this square team was undergoing some kind of cooperation training, and the monk in charge of training was the master of Enlightenment that Zhao Di knew.

The medium-grade spiritual tools in the hands of these Qi Refining Stage cultivators were designed by Zhao Di.

These spirit tools are one-sidedly powerful, simple and rough in process, and the raw materials used are also the most common and common bargains, so they cannot be compared with Zhao Di's spirit tools in terms of flexibility and operability. In the case of that longbow, every time an arrow is fired, you have to wait for half a pillar of incense before you can continue the next attack. And Zhao Di's own medium-grade spirit tools, such as the Han Jiao Bow, can shoot out ice picks in a steady stream. As for the accuracy, it can't be compared with the Hanjiao Bow

Despite this, the cost of this rough medium-grade spirit tool is also about two thousand spirit stones.

This team of 1,000 monks, the value of the spirit equipment in their hands is no less than two million spirit stones

Zhao Di sighed at the generosity of the Outer Sea Business Alliance, and then looked at the dozens of foundation building period cultivators who were practicing in the distance, and suddenly, a familiar figure entered his sight.

"It's really strange to see this person here" Zhao Di really wondered in his heart, the person he said was referring to the "Uncle Li" who had instructed him in practicing magic in Nanhua Jian's family, and was very popular. Is there really anyone in the world who looks exactly like him?

Although Zhao Di wanted to go and ask what was going on, firstly, he had something important to do, and secondly, his current identity was inconvenient to be exposed, so he did not do so.

After a few moments, he continued to turn into a blue light, leaving Island One and flying eastward.

Not long after, on the first floor of the Star Pavilion on Island No. 1, many monks in the Yudan period flew out one after another, and these people all flew towards the east without exception, and their cultivation was mainly in the late stage of Yudan, and there were only a few monks in the middle stage of Yudan.

These monks always flew while looking at the treasure in their hands—a triangular token, which was the same as the Tongtian Order in Zhao Di's hand.

When passing through the huge walls of Island No. 1, monks who see this scene for the first time often involuntarily stop for a moment, while some monks seem to be accustomed to seeing it and passing directly without slowing down.

Two days later, in the sea area of 20,000 miles east of Island No. 1, a seven-story pagoda more than 100 zhang high appeared in the air at a height of more than 1,000 zhang.

This pagoda exudes a faint dazzling aura, the body of the tower is covered by the clouds and mist, and even the melodious fairy sound comes out, but it is a little similar to the rumored fairy palace realm, which makes people look at it, and suddenly have a sense of etherealness.

In the air near the pagoda, there were more than a hundred monks floating around, all of whom were monks in the Yudan period.

There are many monks who wear veils, masks and other magic tools to hide their true faces, and many monks show their true faces generously. These people are all with the Heavenly Order, and they want to enter the Tower of Babel.

Zhao Di wore a black gauze hat on his head, floating quietly in a corner, not saying a word, but his eyes looked through the black veil, looking at these monks who were about to enter the Tower of Babel with him.

Among the more than 100 people who showed their true faces, Zhao Di really recognized a few of them.

The veteran Wuchen in the later stage of the Jiedan, who was once the steward of the Foreign Sea Business Alliance, and Yuan Zixiao, who looked like a young man, are all here. The two were talking in a whisper, Wuchen Lao Dao seemed to be trying his best to persuade the other party to something, but Yuan Zixiao was unmoved, and after persuading for a while, it had no effect, and Wuchen could only keep his mouth shut.

There is also a big man Zhang Beichen, who he also saw once at the auction on No. 1 Island decades ago, not far from Zhao Di, and he was already a monk in the middle of the Yudan period at this time. This person was famous in the early days of Yudan, and now that he has cultivated to the next level, he must be even more powerful.

There is also an "old acquaintance" of Zhao Di, who is now a Confucian scholar Jiangnan who was cultivated in the later period of Jiedan

When Zhao Di saw this person more than a hundred years ago, he was still a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building, and in just over a hundred years, he had broken through several bottlenecks and advanced to the late stage of Jiedan, which can be called extremely talented

Decades ago, this person who was still in the early stage of Yudan easily relieved Zhao Di, who only cultivated in the later stage of foundation building, once for Zhao Di, so that Zhao Di owed this person a favor.

In addition, Yi Ranzi, a young monk of the Blood Intention Sect, Lan Bowen, an old man of the Heavenly Demon Sect, Weizi Mantra of the Heavenly Corpse Sect, and Xiao Yihan, a middle-aged man who is known as the first person to cultivate in the Dan Sect, these famous figures among the monks of the Yudan period, although Zhao Di has not seen some of them, they are all identified one by one according to the characteristics of these people in the rumors. There is also a tall female cultivator whose face is covered by a white veil, judging from the Taiyimen logo left on her long white skirt and a delicate purple sachet pinned to her waist, most of them are the fairy Lin Zihan, who is known as the four beauties of the Righteous Dao League. Without exception, these people are all monks in the later stage of Yudan who have been famous for decades or even hundreds of years

At this time, there is still one day before the opening of the Tower of Babel, and many monks of the Yutan period have rushed here one after another.

A faint blue light flew in, and after a slight pause, revealing a middle-aged man dressed as a Taoist priest, this person glanced at it, and then walked towards Zhang Beichen, a big-cheeked man with big ears.

"Brother Qiu is also here, I thought Brother Qiu was in trouble and gave up this trip to Babel," the big man said with a smile.

Zhao Di, not far away, heard this sentence clearly, surnamed Qiu? Most of this person is the monk who cultivated the "Kurong Jue", and this person is also very famous in the loose cultivation, although he has stayed in the early stage of the Dan cultivation for more than 200 years, but the strength is by no means below the ordinary mid-stage monk, no wonder with the initial cultivation, he actually came to break through the Heavenly Tower.

"Hehe, Brother Zhang is also here, how can Qiu be willing to give up," the middle-aged Taoist priest replied with a smile.

"Brother Qiu's "Kurong Jue" is strong and unparalleled, but the progress of cultivation is too slow, and it is not yet possible to advance to the middle stage, Brother Qiu might as well change the exercise haha" The big man and the Taoist priest seemed to be very familiar with each other, and they made jokes.

The Taoist priest didn't think about it, and said with a smile: "Unless it is to cultivate to the height of advancing to the Yuan Infant Stage, even if you advance to the late stage of the Jiedan, the longevity is still only a few hundred years." And with our qualifications, I can't hope for the existence of the Yuan Infant Period, although Qiu's exercises have progressed slowly, but they can finally make Qiu still have the power to protect himself in front of his peers, and Qiu is unwilling to give up."

"Brother Qiu came to Babel Tower this time, what floor is the target set for?" Dahan changed the topic and asked the question that everyone was thinking about.

"Although Hey Qiu is arrogant, he is still a little self-aware, and he can break through the third layer and harvest an ancient treasure, even if he is satisfied," the Taoist priest said without concealment.

"Yes, Zhang also thinks the same way, I heard that the test of the fourth layer is too difficult, and it is not at all imaginable for us," Dahan also said.

"Hey, two ignorant fanatics in the early and middle stages of the Dan Formation also dare to break through the idea of the first three floors of the Heavenly Tower" An eerie voice sounded, full of disdain.
